For Background: The assassination of Israeli Prime Minister Yitzhak Rabin remains the single
most consequential event in Israel's recent history, and one that fundamentally altered the trajectory for both Israel and the Palestinians. In Killing a King , Dan Ephron relates the parallel stories of Rabin and his stalker, Yigal Amir, over the
two years leading up to the assassination, as one of them planned political deals he hoped would lead to peace, and the other plotted murder. "Carefully reported,
clearly presented, concise and gripping," It stands as "a reminder that what happened on a Tel Aviv sidewalk 20 years ago is as important to understanding
Israel as any of its wars" (Matti Friedman, The Washington Post ).
“Killing of a King” By Dan Ephron
Monday, November 20, 2020 Sarah Lazarus
For Background:
In his own personal weight-loss struggle, David Zulberg turned to the
forgotten wisdom of the ancients--Maimonides, Aristotle, Hippocrates,
Galen, and even Benjamin Franklin--to find consensus on ideal
nutrition for optimum physical and emotional health.
